    Strong design, great execution, and with no curves it would be easy to fab some aluminum body panels for partial coverage.

    Hi! I have at the moment a Honda VFR.. and was thinking of making a trike out of it. Your video posted in You Tube is a great source for a reference and inspiration. Will get in touch in the future once I get to working on it. Cheers!!

    You bet, good luck! I will say, the VFR frame is not as easy to fab around vs other bikes because of the engine configuration. But not impossible, and such a good sounding engine!

I am sure if Kevin built another trike, he would have modifications in mind. It's a nice exciting home build, and deserves the praise it is collecting.

So it's nothing too fancy, just using a hand lever to operate the original shift lever on the bike transmission

    @@hacktical521 I wasn't criticising, I love your work, but I think you're missing a trick, as are other builders. What I meant was, if I was building one, I'd keep the Bike Controls. Throttle on the Steering (I'd have a Yoke, or Bars, full-lock to full-lock in approx 240°), probably a Thumb Throttle. Left Foot Gearchange. Right Foot Brake (to all three Discs). Left Hand Clutch, with Quickshifter. Clutchless Down-Changes are easy and smooth with a Bike Gearbox, so there'd be no need to touch the clutch once you'd pulled away from a stop. Voila! Perfect control at all times without having to move you Feet or Hands, and you can cover the Brakes at all times, no matter what, so much safer, just like on a Bike.

    @@Docv400 okay, I understand now. I really did not follow before. That's an interesting idea, but I feel like you would need some considerable steering assist to stop a potential "tank slapping" since you would have a lot more weight you are pushing against with the same arms that are controlling throttle. I'm sure somebody has done it outside of a leaning trike. I built this one at a shop where I had ample spare parts from cars so that's what I used to keep costs down. If you end up building one the way you described, let me know how it goes!
